By exploring the different themes of dispersion of the disease; mortality; gender; medical response and politics - and through case studies of different towns in the province of Ulster - it builds up a picture of the social, economic and political impact of influenza in Ireland. The Ulster experience of the pandemic is examined by constructing micro-histories of industrial cities and towns, along with provincial market towns and a naval port, to provide a basis for comparison of the differing approaches taken to combat the influenza outbreaks throughout Ulster. Contemporary opinion was that Ireland was considerably less affected by the war than the rest of the UK but, this book shows that the war did have a significant influence on how the influenza pandemic impacted on the Irish population from an economic, social and medical point of view. The book also explores the immediate aftermath of the pandemic and how it influenced the Irish response to the influenza scare of 1920 and the viral pandemic of Encephalitis Lethargica which was prevalent for ten years after 1918, as well as discussing what if any lessons learnt from 1918 have been applied to the present-day outbreak of Covid 19. This book will be of interest to academics in economic history, social history, Irish history and pandemic history, and those studying the effects of pandemics on the economy, health provision and pandemic preparedness. Patricia Marsh began researching the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic in 2005 and completed a MA dissertation on the effect of the pandemic in Belfast in 2006. Her PhD thesis completed in 2010 was entitled 'The Effect of the 1918-19 Influenza Pandemic on Ulster.' She has spoken widely on the 1918-19 influenza pandemic at conferences and seminars in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Her research interests include the encephalitis lethargica epidemic in Ireland and typhoid in Belfast during the twentieth century. She worked as a Teaching assistant at Queen's University Belfast from 2008 until 2011 and was a Tutor for an Open Learning Course in Queen's University Belfast, entitled Plague, Famine and Disease in Ulster. 001439884 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001439884 647_7 $$aInfluenza Epidemic$$d(1918-1919)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01754995 001439884 650_0 $$aInfluenza Epidemic, 1918-1919$$zIreland. 001439884 650_6 $$aÉpidémie de grippe espagnole, 1918-1919$$zIrlande. 001439884 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001439884 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMARSH, PATRICIA.$$tSPANISH FLU IN IRELAND.$$d[S.l.] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2021$$z3030794997$$w(OCoLC)1252961216 001439884 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in economic history. 001439884 852__ $$bebk 001439884 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-79500-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001439884 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1439884$$pGLOBAL_SET 001439884 980__ $$aBIB 001439884 980__ $$aEBOOK 001439884 982__ $$aEbook 001439884 983__ $$aOnline 001439884 994__ $$a92$$bISE
